I cannot install firefox on my windows 7 pro machine. I have downloaded the ver 22 installer executable and when I run it, it never gets past the "Downloading.." progress bar. It looks as though the DL never starts. I am running Win7 64 bit Pro SP1, on a HP elitebook laptop. I have left the installer running for over an hour and it is never able to download. System specs: Intel Core i7 2.4GHz 8GB DDR3 RAM

Here is a SS of the setup. It just stays like this for hours.

Please only download and install Firefox from the official Mozilla servers to avoid getting infected with malware.

You can find the full version of the latest Firefox 22.0 release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:
